Speaking on DLBCL and aggressive lymphomas

Dr Chapuy most recently has been involved in two articles which focus on B-cell lymphomas. One article highlights examples of how high‐throughput technologies aided in a better molecular understanding of large B-cell lymphomas and provided examples of how to select rationally designed targeted treatment approaches. The other article explores the multistep process of human leukocyte antigen-I (HLA-I) loss in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) development including both germline and somatic events.
